Cass, glad that M is alright today! That must have been scary! As for Stella, that isn't very good. How is Lorenzo? There is a special pill from naturopaths that is specifically for dog bites because they have a high rate of infection. We had a lab x that used to go for it with other dogs but was the loveliest lounge lizard ever. Hope you have success with happy pills for her.
I didn't know you were legally blind as a kid - did you have laser surgery to fix it?

Cally, bummer about K's ears. Is the hearing loss permanent or can it be fixed by getting rid of the fluid?

Ginger, hope that L is doing alright today.

MP, that is very exciting that you are thinking of a number 3! My E is just a delight! She is the ultimate in easy textbook babies - all that crap they write about putting them to bed sleepy but awake, tummy time, giving them time to resettle, it actually works if you get the right baby!

MD, so growth spurts can make them clumsy? A is the clumsiest kid ever! She falls over running in a straight line - I thought it was her shoes for a bit but she does it in bare feet too. I feel like I am forever picking her up and dusting her off!
Hairy Maclary is very popular with A atm. There is a DVD of the stories we get from toy library some times and she loves it.

Trill, how is A healing up? A friend took her son into ER with a face split and they stitched it and mentioned to her that if the kid had been a girl they would have done plastic surgery to minimize scarring (apparently appearance isn't as important for a boy).

Oz, it is the other way around here - W taunts A to make her screech. Driving me batty! Not whingy really, but we have had a return to tantrums which isn't really much fun.

AFM, Sunday was a cracker day, clear sky, 26 degrees and we spent the whole day at the river. A bit hard to settle E out and about but it was lovely. Then yesterday DH had an rdo so we went to the city and did the summer clothing shop - I got 26 items for $300 and they should mostly be sorted for summer now. It was followed this morning by W's inevitable meltdown about not wanting to wear the new clothes. Plus he would only consider these terrible canvas shoes so I let him get them because they were only $10 and I knew he wouldn't wear the other ones if he didn't want to get them, then after being the best things ever yesterday he had another meltdown about the new shoes and ended up wearing his old ones
